[DaveAlpine]

I am replacing my prop shaft and will need a new shaft seal 25mm shaft with 40mm(about) stern tube.
Can anyone recommend any particular supplier and type together with contact details e-mail etc.
Thanks

I have a DuraMax fitted to my boat and it works very well. It's a no leak, no mess, low maintenance options.

www.lakesterngear.co.uk / www.pss.com (these from memory will correct when I get home if nec).
PSS seal fitted at beginning of season. Proved simple for self-fit dried out between tides and has worked absolutely as it should. Nicely engineered.

I bought a 25 mm. seal graphite against stainless steel with rubbery bellows from The chandlers opposite the YCMN at Dunkirk. It cost 900 french francs and looks well made. I'm fitting it now and will know if it's any good when I launch.
the same chandlers had stuffing box equivalents in bronze for about 600 french francs. I've got an e-mail adress on the boat for the gadget which I'll find if anyone wants. The Stainless collar is well made with 3 securing set bolts and two o ring seals.
